@Retirix_YT @ilikekeyboards If that’s truly how you feel, you shouldn’t say you think it doesn’t rock. That expresses disapproval, even if you don’t mean it to.

what you just said about weed is what religious extremists say about being gay - a much more harmful take than being anti-weed, imo. Just using this as an example to illuminate why your OG comment connotes greater judgment / hostility to people who smoke weed.

If it doesn’t rock for you then say that not that it doesn’t rock ya see?

@Retirix_YT I responded to you but then deleted the comment because decided engaging wasn’t worth it haha.

I meant to say ‘say’ not see. Sorry if what I said offended you in some way (not being sarcastic)

I personally just hate drugs, I don’t like how they make me feel not in control of myself and I don’t like not being in control.

@Retirix_YT Totally reasonable. not offended at all if anything I felt my reaction was unreasonable, is why I deleted :)

I thought I read more judgment of others in your comment(s) than I’m reading now. Totally fair to personally not partake and express that!
